Promo Pics, Animations and More!

Finally back in town - and this time I mean to stay...for at least a few more months.  I will have a big move coming up later this fall - which may curtail some new productions temporarily, but with your continued support we'll have a lot more coming.

As a small sample of some of the projects in the pipeline we've got a couple pics from Cluedog.

Both these pics are from Cluedog's upcoming donation project follow-up to Champagne Wishes!  I think we'll all be amazed by the incredible amount of creativity and variety that will be on display from this incredible artist.

Next, I have a couple small frames (incomplete - not representative of final work) from Blackshirtboy's upcoming project for me.  This one is not a donation project but is definitely "extended length" compared to most of my commissions and I think a posting format similar to "Showdown at Grave's Dam" will probably work really well for it!

Lastly, we have several new animated gifs from Nobunaga featured on the Gift Art page.  I love a good animation!

Before I forget, I have been taking notice of the poll results - as noted earlier.  Don't have any major comment to make on them at the moment...but I do hope to have some more relevant pieces to post soon.  May post some more polls soon too.  Thanks again for the feedback - and feel free to leave comments - I read every one.

Darkoshen - Remasters and New Releases

Many of you will no doubt by now recognize Darkoshen - the recently re-surfaced and amazingly prolific artist featured just a week ago.  When someone this fast, efficient and affordable comes along, I try to take advantage of my opportunities.

That said, I think it would be interesting to examine the first piece he did for me as a request nearly a year ago.

Below the break is one he did for me about a week ago - what an amazing improvement in the intervening period.

Pink-Diapers - Ad Campaign

This isn't a direct response to the votes I'm seeing right now, but I do appreciate the feedback nonetheless.  Pink-Diapers has actually been working on this project for a little while. 

TransRepo Industries has been around for a quite a while.  Like many other large companies, they are always looking to diversify into various profitable business areas.  Personally, I wouldn't have thought adult diapers were necessarily a growth industry at this point, but I'm apparently wrong on that point.  More to the point, it might have something to do with how these diapers apparently grow on you as well.

Darkoshen - A Touch of Glam

Nothing fancy today...just a short sequence from Darkoshen - an increasingly prolific artist who has shown immense improvement since the gift art he sent me nearly a year ago.

I think we can expect to see quite a few projects from this artist in the future.

By the way - appreciate the votes I'm getting - responding to some feedback on the post - but still looking for more suggestions and input from you viewers.  Thanks!

More Gift Art and Polls - Please Leave Feedback!

First off, I'm very happy to share a beautiful gift art series by Synthean.  This sequence was actually commissioned by a different fan, but I've been given permission to share it here on the site.  Definitely a beautiful piece of work with some very unique features (check out the feet!).

All my thanks to False Princess, the original commissioner.

Next, I am posting a few new polls.  Looking for more feedback - specifically on what types of process I should have more of on the site.  Additionally, if there are certain types of process you'd like to see more of, I'd also like to hear from you (comments) who you think should handle the artwork for it.  I know I rely on a number of regulars for a large number of projects, but I'm always looking for more talent (while there are also many artists out there I just haven't had the opportunity or funds to work with just yet - sometimes just a matter of timing).

Please let me know - links work best.

thanks.

Synthean - Instructional Video 1

Well, this is an interesting development.  I was plumbing the depths of the TransRepo Industrial archives (ie. basement) when I came across an old film tin with what appeared to be some sort of educational/informational filmstrip in it.  Apparently it stemmed from some early efforts by the company to branch out into genetic manipulation and mutations.  Unfortunately the initial condition was very poor, but with the assistance of my good friend Synthean I have been able to reconstruct several scenes of the film so far.  I do not think the video will ever be high enough quality to post, but we're working on a number of key stills that should give us some insight into the early workings of the company.

For the record, judging from the fashions and retro-futuristic backdrops, I'd date this product somewhere in the mid-50s.  I'll post additional frames as we are able to reconstruct them.

Solios - BOB-E Agricultural Variant

The next in our set by Solios.  The BOB-E series is as equally at home in a tranquil, verdant orchard as it is at slinging toxic sludge.

In this case, a local co-op on Circadian Minor has pooled their resources to contract several BOB-E-A models to assist in the semi-annual harvest.  Not only can they each clear an entire acre of trees in about an hour, but they can also function as mobile "refineries" so to speak - capable of producing any number of apple byproducts - at quality and hygienic standards far above the average middleman - and for a fraction of the total cost.

Wrenzephyr2 - Dalmatian's Wish

Well, first off, I just found out that my job will *not* be taking me hither and yon all summer long.  Very relieving and hopefully much more relaxing over the course of the summer.

Secondly, and naturally far more important to you viewers, we have a beautiful new mini-sequence by Wrenzephyr2 - who has definitely developing greatly as an artist over the period I've been watching them.  Poses and looks are coming much more naturally with each new piece.  I'm very happy with the way this one turned out.

Updates to Gift Art and Growing Up Gecko

Just a quick update this week - but still some cool items.  There are more projects brewing on the horizon as always, but for the moment, two new animations from Nobunaga in gift art (TG this time!).

Also a couple of new pin-ups in Growing up Gecko by Wrenzephyr2 - the project isn't dead - just progressing slowly ;p.

Aim to have at least one more good update this week as well.  After that, probably out of town for a few weeks but with good email access, etc.  Thinking about putting up another poll pretty soon - been a while.  Interested in getting some more feedback - and it's easier to click a poll button than to fill out the comments section.

Thanks.

Donation Art Updates and New Gift Art

One more update for tonight.

First a quick reminder - please include the name/listing of the project you'd like to see when you donate.  I'm not sure why the "note" box doesn't always seem to be present with paypal, but please feel free to contact me through email at paypal or here (thrandrall at gmail.com).

Also, please make sure the email attached to your account is good - the only email I see is the one attached to your paypal account - so if it's no longer valid, please check it because I can't send to any other addresses unless you include it in the note or email me separately - specifically for a recent German donor.

Now on a completely separate note, I'm very happy to have some new animations to share in the Gift Art portion of the site.  I was recently contacted by a very talented artist going by Nobunaga who was happy to share some very classy animations.  I'm hosting images from the animations on the site with links to rapidshare downloads for the full files.  They're large, but definitely worth it.  Please check them out!

Oppaiman - The Bimbo Club

Following a recently established tradition, it's time to share the full version of Oppaiman's first Bimbo Club project.

Enjoy it - it's thanks to your support that I'm able to keep commissioning art from these excellent artists!

Donation Art Update - Bimbo Club 2: Still Clubbin'

Well, I am most pleased to have the opportunity to present a new donation project by fan-favorite Oppaiman.  Related only thematically to the previous Bimbo Club Sequence, this one takes the concept and runs with it (hopefully not into the ground ;p).

Oppaiman put a lot of work into it and as you can see from the sample images, we're definitely exploring some different art styles here.  I think there's something for everyone. 

Remember your support helps support these artists as well as providing more resources for quality art.

Thanks a lot!

More updates! New Gift Art!

Just another quick post - stay tuned for a big new post tonight - but in the meantime, there's a beautiful new photomorph on the Gift Art page from something-wild.  Great guy to work with - hope to work on a few more pics with him.

Solios - BOB-E HazMat Variant

The first in a series by master visualizer Solios.  Well, not necessarily the first - but really the first in a new series expanding on the concept.  The BOB-E series is such a resilient workhorse that it has been made available in a wide variety of models for all sorts of tasks and specializations.

The HazMat variant seen here (serial # BOBE-HAZ-768431) has no specific structural modifications from the industrial and urban models previously featured - indeed, all series come with the same ultra-resistant epidermis, inherent self-righting organo-gyro stability and natural attention to detail.  The primary difference is really found in the skin coloring, which serves as a warning and indicator to those sentients operating in proximity to remain clear while hazardous and/or radioactive materials are being handled - the likes of which are quite likely to be fatal to any observers not properly protected.

Stay tuned for further series!

Okayokayokok - Wishing Stones

Well this is really building on a concept I first introduced in Engineskye's new donation project A Day in the Life.  Arianna's Wishing Stones...Available only at La Debaucherie Magique.  Not a very original concept by any stretch of the imagination - either in design or execution, but it gives me an opportunity to work with designing some TFs around "carelessly worded" wishes.  And I had fun twisting my "usual"/"expected" changes just a bit more ;p

Looking for a slightly more "interesting" line than Wishmaster...oh if ever there was a concept ripe for truly unique transformation sequences on film...and so wasted (outside of a couple good scenes).

Anyhoo, I plan on using this for future commissions - it's a handy enough mcguffin for creating a sequence without needing a ton of backdrop/characterization if you're limited in the amount of space/pages you can give to a good sequence.

And what's more, I'm happy to present my first commission by Okayokayokok - an artist (with quite the handle) whose work I've enjoyed for quite a while now but have only just had the opportunity to work with directly.  I hope to be able to work with him on a number of projects in the future!

Oh, and before I forget, check out his brand new comic - The Sanderson Step Sisters.  I highly recommend it.

Enjoy!
